- `linum-mode` currently has a bug that overwrites margin settings,
making it incompatible with Olivetti. More information here:
- <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=20674>
+ <http://debbugs.gnu.org/20674>.
+- Emacs 25.1 introduced changes to `window-min-width` that return
+ erroneously large minimum window widths when using large window
+ margins, causing `split-window-right` to fail with a misleading
+ error message. This necessitates Olivetti patching `split-window-right`
+ to always split the window in half (in line with its documentation
+ string). This is designed as a temporary workaround until the Emacs
+ maintainers fix the problems with `window-min-width`.
+ See <http://debbugs.gnu.org/24193>.
